Massive NYC March and Rally on the Eve of the Republican National Convention

On Sunday, August 29th, one of the biggest and most important protests in a generation
will take place in New York City: a massive march and rally on the eve of the
Republican National Convention, organized by United for Peace and Justice. If
you’re alarmed by the direction that the Bush Administration has taken this country,
you will want to make your voice heard at this historic gathering, where we will
march against war, greed, hate and lies. Already, many thousands of individuals
and hundreds of groups - anti-war, civil rights, immigrant, religious, labor,
feminist, environmental, and many more - are planning to participate in this
demonstration. The Republican National Convention - and the protests - will be
covered by media outlets around the world. It is vital that we bring the largest
possible number of people to New York City on Sunday, August 29 to speak out
against the actions and plans of the Bush Administration.

Join United for Peace and Justice in New York City for a massive, not-to-be-missed demonstration on Sunday, August 29th - a curtain raiser for the Republican National Convention (RNC), which begins the following day.

Why We Are Marching

On August 29, We Say No to War, Greed, Hate, and Lies
We march to promote a new way forward. The disastrous consequences of the Bush agenda are most dramatically visible in the ongoing U.S. war in Iraq. The first step toward a peaceful and secure planet is a foreign policy grounded in human rights, international law, environmental sustainability, and respect for the sovereignty of all nations. Democracy begins with an absolute commitment to the rights and civil liberties of all, especially immigrants and other vulnerable communities. Lasting security rests in economic and social justice, in providing jobs, housing, education, health care and other essential programs to all. We march for peace, we march for justice...

Another world is possible!

  • Sad to say, but you’ve been duped. The time to protest was in boston, where massive protests could’ve woken up the delegates and gotten us a real candidate to replace bush. now that it’s between the two skull n boners kerry/bush, they’ve already won. we lose.

    protesting bush is just a waste of time, we should be protesting the entire corrupt system- both parties have shown their true colors, they don’t care about truth and justice, they only care about profits.

    kerry is no better- choose none of the above, we demand a new election with real candidates!

  • Marihuana " Cake " is exempt and legal to hold under US Federal CSA law and most State Laws, therefore I hope an executive pardon can be granted for the 200,000 people currently in jail for marihuana possession .

    What exactly is marihuana ’ cake ’ and if we are not sure, why are over 200,000 people currently in Jail and over 600,000 people arrested every year in the US for marihuana ’ cake ’ possession ?
    Is Marihuana ’cake’ the Mulch found under Hemp Harvester Machines ?
    Isn’t this mulch cake the same material people hold in plastic baggies and get arressted over 600,000 times every year in the US ?
    Marihuana " Cake " is exempt and legal to hold under Federal CSA law and most State Laws, therefore I hope an executive pardon can be granted for the 200,000 people currently in jail for marihuana possession .

    Please carefully read the :

    Controlled Substances Act of 1970 :

    "(16) The term "marihuana" means all parts of the plant Cannabis sativa L., whether growing or not; the seeds thereof; the resin extracted from any part of such plant; and every compound, manufacture, salt, derivative, mixture, or preparation of such plant, its seeds or resin.

    Such term does not include the mature stalks of such plant, fiber produced from such stalks, oil or cake made from the seeds of such plant, any other compound, manufacture, salt, derivative, mixture, or preparation of such mature stalks (except the resin extracted therefrom), fiber, oil, or CAKE, or the sterilized seed of such plant which is incapable of germination "

    including marihuana ’ stalks, fiber , seed oil and Cake, ect
    When I mow my lawn, a grass " cake " is formed inside the lawn mower, is this what the CSA means by ’ cake ’ ?
    well it is legal to possess and I hope an executive pardon will be granted for those 100,000 plus people currently in Jail for marihuana ’ cake possession under a vague language CSA law
    I think a HUGE mistake has occurred when non scientists, made medical policy concerning the banning of Marihuana as FOOD and not replacing Omega 3 Essential Fatty Acids in our Human Diets.
    Omega 3 is an essential fatty acid, it is essential for Human health
    only a very few foods with GOOD sources that contain Omega 3 EFAs
    They are:
    (1) Fish Oil / Cod Liver Oil
    (2) Soy Oil ( new in western diets ) ( olive oil a tiny bit)
    (3) Blue/Green Algae
    (4) Flax seed oil ( a great cancer fighter apparently )
    And the other is
    (5) HEMP SEEDS, aka Marihuana
    Did you know Marihuana Cake is still legal ?
    What is Marihuana Cake ?
    And if it is legal, what is it exactly, since 100,000s of people have been arrested for a vague law that I hope can be granted a pardon.
    Why would millions of American have risked arrest over Marihuana ?
    Answer is not Pot’s THC, I think it was for the Essentail Fatty Acid, Omega 3.
    It should be noted that Marihuana usage did go down by @50% in Holland after Marihuana’s legalization in that country, maybe because it was used for omega 3.
    Marihuana Oil is one of the very rare oils that contain Omega 3 Essential Fatty Acids.
    NOTICE:
    CAnCER WAS RARE 100 Years Ago
    Why ?
    We are what we eat.
    100 years ago, hemp seeds where used as a food, ( the hemp fibers where used for rope and sack cloth / sail cloth )
    as food was very expensive, and cheap gruels and porriges where made from mushed hemp seeds, or those hemp seeds where used as animal feeds and the omega 3 EFA, being essential to our health, was in the food chain, thru food animals.
    Please Scan the pasted articles on Marihuana, its vague wording in law, and science reports on Essential Fatty Acids, namely Curing Cancer
    PS. If Marihuana is ever formally decriminalized, a good older law was the Marihuana Tax Act of 1937 (below ) Just change the unreasonable permit requirements, and harsh penalties, and the core of this law will prive the FBI and Attorney General’s Office with a good foundation to regulate Marihuana if a Court or Congress elects to allow Marihuana for Human Beings again
